Sound Art Lab

This residency is highly recommended for those who would like to experiment with sounds or looking for new ways of creating sounds. This is not something about traditional instruments - the program is very useful for researching and trying out new methods. They have tons of components for DIY, special mics; such as geo and hydrophones. The location is perfectly inspiring: a small town near the sea in a beautiful and calm environment - which is famous from Bang&Olufsen! My practical advice would be to create a guideline to follow, it is easy to lost in all these opportunities.

Great apartment, shared with other interesting co-residents, made contact with people I will for sure see again and stay in touch with. Studio facilities are amazing, and the walk between the studio and the apartment is really nice (both would require some adjustments for accessibility for people with limited mobility). Equipment, spaces, staff: all was amazing. Very productive and insightful residency.

Great feedback and supervision by very skilled and engaged peeps at SAL, less inspirational surrounding community that mostly seemed detached from what’s happening at SAL.

Super interesting place with very nice people! Sound Art Lab in Struer has a lot to offer when it comes to workshops and knowledge. Nice accomondation too.

The residency is really good if you require solitude and a pretty self-driven. The resources available in terms of recording equipment and studios are plentiful and really helpful. The living quarters are lovely. The township of Struer is quiet and quaint and takes some getting used to, but there is a nice park walk not too far from accommodation. There was helpful financial support. Communication needs a bit more work. The collaboration offered with Bang & Olufsen, though it took a lot of negotiation on the presenters part, ended up being really wonderful and we made good connections with staff.
